Tk. 125 USD 7 ISSN 2225‐8175 (Online) ISSN 2225‐8035 (Print) CCM42012_1WP2_DGP The present Working Paper Series emerged from a joint collaborative programme being implemented by the Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), Dhaka, Bangladesh and Chr. Michelsen Institute (CMI), Norway. This three‐year research cooperation programme will focus on issues of common interest to both the organisations and service the demands of Bangladesh economy in a number of key sectors. The CPD, established in 1993, is a civil society initiative in Bangladesh to promote an ongoing dialogue between the principal partners in the decision making and implementing process. A key area of CPD’s activism is to organise dialogues to address developmental policy issues that are critical to national, regional and global interests with a view to seek constructive solutions from major stakeholders. The other key area of CPD activities is to undertake research programmes which are both serviced by and are intended to serve as inputs for CPD’s dialogue process. Some of the major research areas of CPD include: macroeconomic performance analysis, poverty and inequality, agriculture, trade, regional cooperation and global integration, infrastructure and enterprise development, climate change and environment, human development, development governance, policies and institutions. CPD actively networks with other institutions within and outside Bangladesh which have similar interests, and also regularly participates in various regional and international fora where interests and concerns of developing and particularly least developed countries are discussed (more information is available at: www.cpd.org.bd). It is to be noted that in recognition of the track record in research, dialogue and policy influencing, CPD was selected as one of the awardees under the Think Tank Initiative (TTI) through a globally held competitive selection process. TTI is supported among others by William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, UK Department for International Development (DFID) and Netherlands Directorate‐General for International Cooperation (DGIS), and is implemented by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), Canada (more information is available at: www.idrc.ca). The CMI is an independent development research institute founded in 1930 in Bergen, Norway. The Institution works to generate and communicate research‐based knowledge in the areas of fighting poverty, advancing human rights, reducing conflict and promoting sustainable social development. CMI’s research focuses on local and global challenges and opportunities facing low and middle‐ income countries and their citizens. CMI conducts both applied and theoretical research, and has a multidisciplinary profile anchored in ten thematic research clusters. These include aid, cultures and politics of faith, gender, global health and development, governance and corruption, natural resources, peace and conflict, poverty dynamics, public finance management, and rights and legal institutions. The Institution has an extensive network of research partners, and works in close cooperation with researchers in the South. CMI’s geographic orientation is towards Sub‐Saharan Africa, Southern and Central Asia, the Middle East and Latin America. CMI puts emphasis on broad country competence and regional capacity as well as insight into development processes in the South. CMI is the largest centre for development studies in the Scandinavia (more information is available at: www.cmi.no). The purpose of this Working Paper Series is to disseminate the outputs of the CPD‐CMI programme among the various stakeholders with a view to ensuring wider outreach of the programme output.

    Bangladesh and Bangladesh-U.S. Relations Updated October 17, 2017 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R44094 Bangladesh and Bangladesh-U.S. Relations Summary Bangladesh (the former East Pakistan) is a Muslim-majority nation in South Asia, bordering India, Burma, and the Bay of Bengal. It is the world’s eighth most populous country with nearly 160 million people living in a land area about the size of Iowa. It is an economically poor nation, and it suffers from high levels of corruption. In recent years, its democratic system has faced an array of challenges, including political violence, weak governance, poverty, demographic and environmental strains, and Islamist militancy. The United States has a long-standing and supportive relationship with Bangladesh, and it views Bangladesh as a moderate voice in the Islamic world. In relations with Dhaka, Bangladesh’s capital, the U.S. government, along with Members of Congress, has focused on a range of issues, especially those relating to economic development, humanitarian concerns, labor rights, human rights, good governance, and counterterrorism. The Awami League (AL) and the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) dominate Bangladeshi politics. When in opposition, both parties have at times sought to regain control of the government through demonstrations, labor strikes, and transport blockades, as well as at the ballot box. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been in office since 2009, and her AL party was reelected in January 2014 with an overwhelming majority in parliament—in part because the BNP, led by Khaleda Zia, boycotted the vote. The BNP has called for new elections, and in recent years, it has organized a series of blockades and strikes.

  • Bangladesh Legislative Elections, 29 December 2008
    LEGISLATIVE ELECTIONS IN BANGLADESH ELECTION OBSERVATION DELEGATION 27 – 31 December 2008 REPORT BY MR Charles TANNOCK CHAIRMAN OF THE DELEGATION Report 2 Annexes 7 1 INTRODUCTION Following an invitation from the Bangladeshi authorities, the Conference of Presidents decided at its meeting on 23 October to authorise the sending of a delegation of the European Parliament to observe the legislative elections in Bangladesh, at that time scheduled for the 18 December. The Constitutive Meeting of the EP EOM was held in Strasbourg on the 19th November and M. Robert Evans (PSE,UK) was elected Chairman. However, the rescheduling of the Election date in Bangladesh to the 29th December made it, unfortunately, not possible for many of the Members initially appointed by their Political Groups to maintain their availability. A new constitutive meeting was therefore held on the 10th December, with M. Charles Tannock (EPP/ED, UK) elected Chairman of a 4-strong delegation; as is customary, these Members were appointed by the political groups in accordance with the rolling d'Hondt system (the list of participants is annexed to this report; the ALDE political group gave its seat to the N/I group). Taking into account this change of dates, the Conference of Presidents re-examined the situation at its meeting of the 17th December and confirmed its initial decision to send a parliamentary delegation. As is usual, the European Parliament's delegation was fully integrated into the European Union Election Observation Mission (EU EOM), which was led by Mr Alexander Graf LAMBSDORFF, MEP (ALDE, D). The EU EOM deployed 150 observers from 25 EU Member States plus Norway and Switzerland.

Huntington had called the “third wave of democracy”1 after a people’s movement toppled 15 years of military rule in December 1990. In the next 15 years, the country made gradual progress in fulfilling the criteria of a “minimalist democracy”2 – regular free and contested elections, peaceful transfer of governmental powers as a result of elections, fundamental freedoms, and civilian control over policy and institutions.

  • Jatiya Sangsad: the Parliament of Bangladesh
    Jatiya Sangsad: The Parliament of Bangladesh By Nizam Ahmed The Jatiya Sangsad, as the Parliament is called in Bangladesh, predates the independence of the country in 1971. Its precursor, the Legislative Council of Bengal, was established during the British colonial rule in 1861 when only a few countries outside Europe and North America could claim to have established such an institution. But the Parliament did not have any steady growth until recently. Several structural, procedural and political constraints made the Parliament seriously disadvantaged vis-à-vis other sources of power, particularly the government, during the colonial days and nearly a quarter century of Pakistani neo-colonial rule (1947-71). Since independence, Bangladesh has experimented with different types of government – multiparty parliamentary system patterned after the Westminster model (1971-74), one-party presidential system (1975), and multi-party presidential system (1978-82; 1986-1990). For eight years between 1975 and 1990, the country remained under absolute military rule. In September 1991 the multi-party parliamentary system was restored. Since then, Bangladesh has officially remained a parliamentary democracy. Ten parliaments have been elected over the last four decades (1973-2014), although only a few have been able to complete their five-year tenure. Among the Parliaments, those elected since the early 1990s have survived longer; the 1 only exception was the sixth Parliament (1996) which met for only four days. The ‘recent’ parliaments, which have enjoyed greater legitimacy than their predecessors, have also undertaken several measures to modernize procedures to improve their capacity to affect the policy outcome as well as to make the government behave.

    ESID Working Paper No. 132 The 2018 Bangladeshi election Mathilde Maitrot1 David Jackman2 January 2020 1 University of Bath Email correspondence: [email protected] 2 University of Oxford Email correspondence: [email protected] ISBN: 978-1-912593-42-2 email: [email protected] Effective States and Inclusive Development Research Centre (ESID) Global Development Institute, School of Environment, Education and Development, The University of Manchester, Oxford Road, Manchester M13 9PL, UK www.effective-states.org The 2018 Bangladeshi election Abstract Between 1990 and 2009, the violent competition characteristic of Bangladeshi politics was tempered during elections through a system of caretaker government, which managed successfully to adjudicate between parties in a neutral manner. Since the system was repealed in 2011 however, elections have more closely resembled those seen previously under military rule. This paper examines the most recent election, the controversial 2018 landslide victory for the Awami League. Based on a multi-site analysis, we examine how the victory was achieved, reviewing the candidate nomination process, campaigns and election day itself. The ruling party’s success lies in efficient party management, with factionalism kept in check, an appealing vision of a developed and ‘digital’ Bangladesh and, most fundamentally, widespread coercion of political opposition using the apparatus of the state. The election articulates two key characteristics of contemporary Bangladeshi politics: state coercion and developmentalist ambitions. Keywords: Bangladesh, elections, coercion, security agencies, development, candidates Maitrot, M. and Jackman, D. (2020) The 2018 Bangladeshi election. ESID Working Paper No. 132.
